The MSSE program is an industry-based program that will engineer better solutions for a better world. In this context, the program’s
mission is to:
- Provide students with a high-quality education, virtual class options, and the opportunity to succeed at school while working
- Educate and mentor students to promote systems thinking and prosperity while protecting the planet
- Create systems that build economic growth and address a range of social needs including education, health, social protection, and job opportunities, while tackling climate change and environmental quality
- Incorporate industry needs and global megatrends of digital transformation, sustainability, and complexity growth
- Incorporate technology trends such as advances in materials and manufacturing, advanced modeling and simulation, the data sciences, and digital transformation
- Reflect the trends that shape stakeholder values, such as simple, timely, safe, secure, and stable systems
The WSU MSSE program is 100% HyFlex
HyFlex allows an individual student to choose how to attend class on any given day – online synchronously or online asynchronously. HyFlex allows students that travel for work, who are sick, have busy work schedules or have growing families, to choose their learning modality. HyFlex allows students to meet at set times to receive instruction via web conferencing, to have the option to watch the recorded online instruction, and to submit assignments via the online course webpage.
Weber is continuously upgrading and fine tuning technology being used in the classroom to ensure opportunities for success, today and tomorrow.
Industry Relevant
Other Systems Engineering programs focus on engineering disciplines such as: design, industrial, manufacturing, software, or management. Weber’s view of Systems Engineering is in the global context, recognizing the systems viewpoint and landscape, while incorporating INCOSE standards and teachings. At Weber, the required coursework includes the materials and knowledge necessary to prepare students for the Certified Systems Engineering Professional (CSEP) exam offered by the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE).
Industry relevance translates to additional career advancement opportunities.
WSU focuses on the life cycle management through the application of digital engineering. Topics include:
